Talk:Mission 8: Sleep with One Eye Open: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 20:47, 6 August 2010

I've got more coming, but I wanted to get something up today at least. I will try to post more later tonight to finish off the mission info so people can start thinking and discussing plans. Feel free to post questions or whatever here.

Also, don't need to say it. Inception was obviously some significant part of the inspiration for the mission. Though certainly not all of it. (Dan you remember the old Sandman SL?) --FyreFly 16:50, 4 August 2010 (EDT)

It's funny how quickly the tables turn - instead of taking the kill, Ash is now getting killed every mission ;). I'll post more discussion later, but wanted to drop that gem into the conversation. Dan 21:51, 4 August 2010 (EDT)

Indeed how the tables have turned on poor Ash. I think I have all the information I needed to post up now. Feel free to ask questions or plan and I'll try to respond. --FyreFly 17:09, 5 August 2010 (EDT)

I'm a bit unclear on the outlined mission parameters. Is Ash playing the role of the Sandman, and then, once the dream is implanted, the Sandman is killed during the course of the dream (presumably because Ash was "killed" in the scripted dream)? Should someone also be playing the role of the Dreamer for this to work?

My initial thoughts for a plan entail dropping the house from Geronimo into the open mouth of a dragon. I haven't decided how I will accomplish this yet. Dan 23:42, 5 August 2010 (EDT)

Yea, you've got the premise about right. The idea being that Cello will splice the dreams together so that the dream plays out how we've made it, but The Real Sandman and Dreamer will be spliced in. So if the Sandman is killed, he is at least unable to complete the process of getting rid of The Dreamers powers. It's unlikely the Sandman's real form would actually be killed. I meant to make a note on The Dreamer but forgot. He can be in the dream (most plans would require this to be realistic) but didn't want to limit you. He could be played by anyone though (one of you guys or an associate or whatever) but they will have to act the part since if the dreamer deviates from the dream when its real things would get messed up. In the note I forgot, the Dreamer is also required to live. The Three Fiends were unsure if killing The Sandman along with The Dreamer would actually stop the process. --FyreFly 16:47, 6 August 2010 (EDT)
